... that flock worker's lung is a disease caused by inhaling small particles of nylon?

Comment: With regards to MEDRS - PubMed showed no reviews published on this (quite rare and recently-described) disease in the past 5 years. NIOSH has information that meets MEDRS but I have supplemented it with information from the reviews of literature sections in reliable journal articles. From my previous experience writing about very rare diseases, this should be okay.

New enough, long enough, meets core content policies. Hook directly cited to RS. Good to go. As an aside, I don't see how your sources can't meet MEDRS; there's no rule saying one has to use PubMed. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 19:18, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
